Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 842 Walking on the Edge of Heaven
"The Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord is the number one in the cultivation world in terms of both fortune and divination."

Cui He said:

"Just a few days ago, Brother Gu was summoned by Daoist Tianji, who said he would tell your fortune and the result was the attainment of the Dao."

Li Rui's expression grew even more serious.

A divination by Tianji Daojun is extremely valuable.

Cui He sighed softly: "The divination indicates that dragons are fighting in the wild, a calamity between heaven and man, a great misfortune."

"This calamity... I'm afraid it will be difficult for you, senior."

"Senior Tianji calculated that at least five Dao Lords would make a move when the senior attained Dao. Furthermore, he calculated that even Senior Tianji would suffer a backlash and be unable to glimpse the secrets of heaven."

Li Rui remained calm.

Even someone like Tianji Daojun suffered a backlash, which means that the existence hidden in the shadows and yet to appear is even more powerful than Tianji Daojun.

If this had happened to any other True Lord, it would have been a death sentence, but he did not despair because of it.

Instead, he calmly retorted, "Why did Senior Tianji tell me all this?"

Who is Tianji Daojun?

Why say so much to a True Lord who is destined to die?

Cui He added, "The heavens cycle through forty-nine, but man escapes one; fortune and misfortune are intertwined, and one must seek survival amidst danger."

"Senior Tianji always felt that there might still be a glimmer of hope for you."

"If it succeeds, it will be like the Azure Emperor of yesteryear, proving the supreme Dao."

"He wants to give it a try."

The Tianji Clan is all about gambling. Back then, the Tianji Clan failed to bet on the Azure Emperor and instead placed their bets on someone else, which has always been a regret for them. The Tianji Clan always feels deep remorse when they talk about it.

That's why Tianji Daojun was willing to invest in Li Rui.

Li Rui took a deep breath: "Please thank Senior Tianji for me."

If he wasn't mistaken, the one who caused even the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord to suffer a backlash was most likely that Red Dust Immortal.

'In the end, the cause and effect were finally resolved.'

That one glance at the South Heaven Gate had already sealed the fate of cause and effect.

Or.

Li Rui, having obtained the Celestial Court, could not escape this fate.

The only thing to be thankful for is...

That immortal of the mortal world probably hasn't noticed him yet. It's probably because he's too weak. Why would he pay attention to an ant?
In the eyes of immortals, even a True Lord is nothing more than a slightly larger ant.

Only those who become Dao Lords are qualified to be watched by immortals.

In other words.

When he attains the Dao Fruit, that immortal in the mortal world will most likely know that he is burdened by the Celestial Court.

There is no despair.

Li Rui became even calmer. He said to Cui He, "Xiao He, please go and thank Lord Tianji for me."

"it is good."

Cui He agreed, and then left the Eastern Governor's Mansion without stopping.

In just ten days.

Cui He returned to the Eastern Governor's Mansion.

Li Rui asked with a smile, "Since you know I have a slim chance of survival, why did you still bet on me?"

Cui He replied, "I've already staked everything I own, and there's no turning back now."

after that.

Cui He also stayed at the Eastern Governor's Office.

Life went on as usual.

Li Rui spends most of his time in seclusion, going out less and less often.

Cui He asked again, "Senior, how can you remain so calm even though you know the path is difficult?"

Li Rui's response at the time was: "Back in Qinghe, I knew I would die in a few years, but I still ate and drank as usual. Why should I be so worried about gains and losses now that I still have hundreds of years to live? That doesn't make sense."

However, the news that Cui He brought him also reminded him of something.

My own foundation is still somewhat weak.

It could be thicker.

That year.

A golden light flashed in Li Rui's residence.

He created the secluded cave, located in the Kidney Palace, belonging to the Kan Water element, which is responsible for storing essence.

Since then.

The Primordial Myriad Paths Method has finally reached its second level.

He was not in a hurry to find a Dao seed to take over Youque Cave Heaven, but left it empty for the time being. After all, even the [Sitting in Oblivion Abyss] was not important yet. Even if he pursued a foundation, he could not be too greedy, otherwise he would be too hasty and not achieve his goal.

The fact that it opened up a secluded grotto-heaven is not entirely useless.

How could the Hunyuan Wandao Method, created by my own senior brother Wuzhong and personally revised by my master, the Lord of the Celestial Court, be such a useless thing?

"Nourish your innate essence and ward off cold, poison, and evil influences."

It has the effect of dispelling external evils and purifying one's mind. Li Rui broke through to a higher realm too quickly, and the Netherworld Cave can help mend the deficiencies in his state of mind.

night.

The Eastern Governor's Mansion was still brightly lit. Even though there was no one in the entire Yu Kingdom who could protect Li Rui, the soldiers in the mansion still stood guard and patrolled diligently, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Li Rui sat cross-legged on the bed.

I have completed a day's practice.

Only then did he crawl into bed.

In just a moment, he fell into a deep sleep.

When I opened my eyes again, I was already at the Taixu Dojo.

The True Lord no longer needed to work from sunrise to sunset like ordinary people; he was simply here at the Taixu Dojo.

Now, he is the only one left at the Taixu Dojo.

As Zhongli's cultivation level rose higher and higher, he eventually could not repay the illusory stone that allowed him to enter and exit the Taixu Dojo.

Zhongli once said.

Not being able to cross the Gan Yue Bridge is a great regret in my life.

At that moment, Li Rui was standing at the head of the Gan Yue Bridge.

Take a steady first step.

There was no stagnation at all.

Then they took the second step.

His pace quickened, flowing smoothly until he reached the middle of the Gan Yue Bridge, where Li Rui slowed down slightly.

However, compared to the initial difficulty of crossing the bridge, it was undoubtedly much easier.

soon.

We've reached step 193.

At this moment, Li Rui could even see the magnificent palace on the other side of the bridge.

There are twelve in total.

All of them are palaces of immortals.

boom--

One foot landed firmly.

His body swayed slightly, but Li Rui finally managed to steady himself.

Step 194.

"call"

Li Rui let out a long breath, his eyes resolute, and the [True Martial Descent] within his body shone with divine light.

Crossing the Moon-Catching Bridge is actually more advantageous for those of them who rely on physical strength.

After all, the Moon-Chasing Bridge was personally built by his master, whom he had never met. How could anyone take shortcuts? He could only pass through with his own strength. Therefore, those True Lords who were good at strange methods suffered losses in this test.

The momentum of [opening the heavens] begins.

And with the invincible momentum accumulated over these days.

Bang, bang, bang.
Li Rui took three steps in a row.

197.

Only three steps away.

The terrifying pressure on the Moon-Catching Bridge even made Li Rui's body crack and pop, the sound of bones breaking.

If Li Rui could comprehend the Radiant Wheel, things might be much easier for him.

just.

This time, Li Rui did not choose to retreat but instead conserve his energy.

Rather, it was a rare act of recklessness.

You can't vent your anger!
As if touched by Li Rui's state of mind, the [Longevity Court] located in the Yellow Court Cave Heaven also shone with dazzling brilliance.

The oppressive aura emanating from him instantly diminished.

Li Rui was originally a martial artist, and he naturally possessed a ruthless nature.

With the power of the [Eternal Life Court].

Go in again!

All in one go.

Li Rui forged ahead with unwavering determination.

Two hundred steps.

He stepped steadily onto the white jade bricks at the head of the Gan Yue Bridge.

Just then——

Only then did I notice an extremely elegant and ethereal figure appear at the bridgehead:

"Junior brother, you're here."
